ABSTRACT
This paper examines the current status of research in the field of food design in China. First, data analysis of the literature in the field was conducted through VOSviewer to deconstruct food design in China in terms of research status and trends, spatial distribution and keyword co-occurrence. A bibliometric analysis of the literature in the field of food design in China was conducted to analyse relevant annual statistics, research by individual institutions and authors, research hotspots and keyword coupling, and frequency. As China’s GDP grows year on year and the living standards of its residents improved, Chinese people become more concerned about food consumption and health risks. As a result, research hotspots in this field are also in these areas. At the same time, Chinese research institutions are paying more attention to food design, and the research hotspot for food design in China is also increasing year by year.
